A recent survey shows not all Canadians are ready to make the switch to an electric vehicle as they have concerns about charging stations, cold weather and battery life.

I want a car, not a subscription.

Admittedly, many internal combustion vehicles have subscriptions, too, but the EV industry is so much worse for this.

Which EVs have required subscriptions?

My Kia sure doesn't.

I didn't say anything about requiring a subscription. For many manufacturers, including Kia, it's optional if you want certain features attached to a cellular device the manufacturer is already paying for and harvesting data from regardless of whether or not you subscribe.
